005_SYNTHETIC SYMPHONY

MOTION DESIGN + AUDIO

Synthetic Symphony began with a simple brief to the team: design an instrument that could stand alone as an art installation, with its sound to be defined only after the visuals were complete.

The project became a sandbox for R&D into rendering pipelines and simulation tools, all while pushing our artistic limits. Drawing on an early passion for music, I composed a bespoke score and sound design for the piece.

Synthetic Symphony helped refine our end-to-end process from concept through audio and post-production, raising our artistic and technical benchmark. It's become a standout sales asset, directly contributing to new client work.
